Sleek, contemporary and flattering, it's little wonder our Janelle Coat is a bestseller. It has fully taped seams and falls to the knee to offer maximum protection against the elements. The upper part of the coat is lined with a tonal fleece to keep the chill at bay, while the lower half is quilted for warmth and ease of movement. The peaked detachable hood protects your face from the wind and rain, while neat, sporty adjusters help ensure a perfect fit. Reflective strips on the back of the hood and the bottom of the sleeves help make you more visible after dark. It’s finished off with a two-way zip, adjustable cuffs and waist adjusters at the back for a more feminine silhouette. In versatile colours that work with your wardrobe, it’s as happy in town as it is on the coast.

Wonderful Rain Coat

My new Janelle Coat got it's first proper workout today, down below the 45 degrees S parallel - it wasn't 'til I got home and took off my backpack that I realised how wet it was. I was dry, warm and there were no rainspots on my glasses. I'd been looking for a decent, long raincoat for a larger lady for a while and I'm really happy I purchased from Seasalt. I'd love to see this coat in a nice bright royal blue, but as I've only just purchased this one it'll be a few years before I need another.

Bought this coat on the sale...had been searching all over for a long warm coat and this coat does exactly that I stay dry and shielded from the Cornish winds. I love that I am able to buy such a high quality product from a Cornish company...keep doing the county proud. From a Cornish maid :)

The BEST EVER rain coat!

The Janelle Coat ticks all the boxes!! Especially your newer version as it has the most handy built in hood visor so my face + glasses don't get soaked from the elements! Seriously lovely! Also those reflective strips are a lifesaver during evening walks/winter walks! Thank you for this amazing jacket and please keep it part of your collection so I can buy it again and again :)

I bought this coat last year, I love it. It’s lined so is warm as well as being waterproof, comfortable to wear, it’s a size 20 with room to spare for a thick sweater, easy to drive in. Perfect for dog walking, good deep pockets. I like the small hood can see left and right, the neb is perfect too for keeping the rain off my specs. I like the way it dips at the back, keeps bum dry when sitting. The sleeves are the correct length for my long arms without turning back to reveal the reflective stripe.

Best coat ever!

I bought one of these coats about three years ago and wear it all the time. However it started to look tired so I purchased the same coat in a different colour this time! Its the best coat ever. I love the zipped up pockets to stop keys falling out when you sit down. The elastics to help the hood fit properly especially in windy weather are brilliant. Its lightweight yet the warmest coat I own. Well thought out design that I love.

Reflective strips let this coat down

I bought one of these coats in a Seasalt store before Xmas. It is lovely and warm, yet stylish and practical. However, a real let down are the reflective strips on the cuffs. On my coat, they have scratched and become unsightly just through daily wear, so now this coat looks quite shabby. Also, I feel a little bit like a primary school child with reflective strips on my coat. Shame as this is otherwise a lovely coat.

Janelle Coat

I’ve had this coat for 2 years and it has kept me warm and dry every day!
I spend a lot of time outdoors and since I live in Scotland this means it’s usually cold and wet. Not once has my Janelle coat let in rain or cold.
A very practical product which does exactly what it says-waterproof and windproof.
Only recently one of the zips in the side pocket broke..This after 2 years of hard use is impressive.
My coat is in black,with natural colored fleece lining.

Good but not perfect

Beautiful coat.
Nice dark hellebore colour. I was looking for navy coat as all my clothing is navy but now glad that order this colour.
Length is that what i was looking for. Gives some kind caccon feeling. I hate when legs get wet.
Sizing ok. Ordered two sizes. Size 10 (for me) snuggly hugs arround the waist but too narrow in shoulders so kept size 12. Feels a bit bulky when wearing because of waterproof stiff fabric.
Hood as many mentioned previously is real disappointed. For this i can't rate 5 stars. Another day my make up was washed out.
But i am keeping it as it is waterproof, long, warm and nice colour.

Perfect .....almost

This has been an almost perfect purchase for me, : The length ,weight , colour and comfort . My only slight niggle is the difficulty I sometimes experience when fastening the zip. Linking the two bits in order to then pull the zip up has proven awkward on several occasions . With practice I hope to get better .....I would not want to have to send it back !

Warm, cosy and great length

I really love how warm this coat is in windy and rainy weather, I live by the cast and it really does keep you toasty when the wind picks up. The length is great and long enough to protect your legs from the rain. The pockets have a fleecy lining which is fab too. Very quick delivery too!
I am usually a 12 and originally bought this coat in a size 12 but had to exchange for 10. It came up a dress size bigger on me, even with layers.

Janelle coat

Absolutely love my new coat, had to return the first one as it was a bit tight but was pleased with the next size up. I am disabled and needed a coat which I could wear over layers to keep me warm and dry when I used my mobility scooter to walk my dog. Have had it for a couple of weeks, it has been worn in the rain, cold and windy weather – loved how the rain just rolls off the coat. Pleased with the length as when seated on my mobility scooter it still covers my knees, keeping them warm and dry. I may, however, be on the lookout for a similar but longer coat to keep my legs warm.

Posted by Sue • 3rd March 2019

Great coat, small hood though

The coat is of very good quality, warm and nice, size 12 fits me perfectly, except one small but rather important detail- the hood is very small, so with my hair up in a pony tail I can barely put it on. I wish I could buy/exchange the hood for one bigger.

I put the coat straight to the test and it lives up to its expectations, it's water- and windproof. Was very happy with the colour (Dark Wreckage) practical pockets, it's ideal for everyday use and walks. I ordered a one size up (12) as I like to layering up but I think my normal size would have fitted me a tiny bit better.

Almost perfect

I'm very pleased with my coat (though it's not quite as warm as my (non-waterproof) winter coat and I've had to wear an extra layer for really cold wet days). My one gripe though is the tail at the back. Though I think this can look quite elegant on a mid-thigh coat, I feel it does nothing to improve the looks on a knee-length one, and I actually find it slightly annoying when I'm walking in boots. I'm 5'8" so it's not that the whole coat is too long, but the tail catches the back of my wellington boots, and I worry that very fierce rain might be funnelled down inside them! It's better since I've opened the zip at the back, but still something I'm aware of at every step.

Best everyday coat I have ever bought

This coat is everything it says it is. I am 5ft 7 and the coat is a really good length. It is snowing at the mo here and with just a jumper underneath it, I am really snug as a bug. When it is raining and slightly warmer it is perfect too. Not to hot. It is lightweight, comfy and most definitely windproof. Zip a bit fiddlely but I suspect that's me not the coat

Janelle rain coat

This is my second Janelle and I bought a different colour dark wreckage. My blue one is no longer waterproof after some years of constant use. I love them but miss the white buttons and Sea Salt name on sleeve which was very sharp. Also ditch the mustard lining on sleeves which looks like cheap donkey jacket stuff. I love the addition of peak on the hood though.

Raincoat / wind proof Janelle Coat.

My wreck coloured Mack/coat arrived quite quickly after I ordered it. I ordered a size larger than I needed to allow for added jumpers etc. It is true to size so it was a bit bigger on me but with the waist adjusters it is fine, and the length is just on/ below my knee. The back is a bit longer due to the fishtail, but what I like is it is zipped closed and when zip is undone a pleat is there for extra walking room. So so cosy and keeps out the wind

I saw this coat last year and thought it looked great - and finally got round to buying one. Perfect in every way - great length (I'm 5'*8". and while not particularly tall often have difficulty finding a coat that comes below my knees), , lovely colour (dark wreckage). I did go up a size based on some of the reviews suggesting this was a good idea and I'm glad did as it fits over all my warm jumpers. Toasty warm, and looks smart but also great for dog walking. Highly recommend

Lovely coat I waited ages to decide to buy and colour choice eventually made for me by lack of availability in my size.
Wore in heavy rain for first time yesterday and knew I’d made a choice I’d wear for years. The coat is lightweight but warm roomy enough to wear cardigan underneath. The reflective bands are a good idea and the pockets are sufficiently large for my keys or gloves. All in all pleased with my purchase.

This is an amazing “investment” Mum coat.
It’s light weight, fluffy warm, long and fully waterproof, ticks every single box for walking and pushing the pram in all weathers!
And fully preps me for cold days out at the farm.

Ideal coat for wet windy weather

I love this coat and agree with everyone else that it is perfect for grim weather due to its materials and length. It has a handy inside pocket that I use for documents or money and I appreciate the furry lining too. The only thing I was missing were knitted wrist bands that prevent wind to enter the sleeves, but I had them fitted in and now even my arms stay warm. It has improved the coat immensely and I would recommend anyone who suffers from constantly feeling cold, like I do, to do the same.
It would also be nice to see this detail designed in the Seasalt coats in the future!

I thought I should write a review about this coat. I purchased it a few years ago and named it "my playground coat" As I sped so much times waiting to pick up my children in the playground. This coat always kept me dry and warm.
We have recently moved to Canada, where so far the temperature has been -18, which feels like -24 in the wind. THIS COAT as kept me warm, if only it went down to my ankles!
So well done seasalt, this coat is ace.

I bought this coat for myself to wear in Northern Ireland as the weather can be very bad here, I liked the long length and the fact it’s breathable. I was so impressed when it arrived, no delay in receiving it either. It’s very comfortable, I live in it now, I was so happy with it I also purchased the same coat for my mum for her birthday and she absolutely loves it too. Easy to wear, easy to move around in it. Very stylish looking and warm. Highly recommend this coat you won’t be disappointed at all. I would defiantly buy another one. My husband wants a make version of it too.

I wanted one of these coats for ages but wasn’t sure I could justify the cost. Stopped fighting it over the Christmas holidays and am so glad I did. I have worn it every day and it has been worth every penny so far. Stylish as well as practical, with a multitude of pockets, and warm and waterproof, what more could I ask for?!
Well, just one thing. As others have mentioned, the double zip can be a little challenging! But a minor concern. Love my coat!

Perfect Winter Raincoat

I'm extremely happy with my new Janelle coat. The order process was simple, and even though I live in the Netherlands, shipping was reasonably priced and not a deterrent in any way.

I've been very happy wearing my coat out walking my dog, and even while cycling in the wind and rain.

I bought the size 20 even though my measurements were for the 18, but when it arrived the coat was a little snug. I could have kept it quite happily, but I wanted a coat with a little more room, so returned it for a 22. I tightened the waist snaps and it's a perfect fit.

This is a beautiful coat which looks elegant. The double zip, fluorescent cuff turn backs are great. It is warm and the hood is not just the right size. Like the material but it kinda crackles a bit when walking. Unfortunately I am returning this because it is too long - particularly at the back. I wanted a warm waterproof coat - wish you made in a shorter length. I sometimes wear a 12 and sometimes a 14. Bought this in a 12 which was quite big enough.

I cannot say how much I love this coat. I bought it for dog walking and it has kept me warm and dry in some dreadful weather this year including gales and heavy rain. The longer length keeps my knees dry. On a number of occasions people have commented on the great safety feature of the reflective strips - no street lighting or pavements where I live. Please don’t stop making these as one day I will need to replace it.

What wonderful service from Seasalt. When the zip of my 2 year old Seasalt coat broke and was told that it would be 40 euro's to fix I decided to contact Seasalt just in case. And even though it was 2 year old they first offered to pay for fixing(I'm outside the UK) but after asking they gave me a discount for a new coat so I've now gone one size up, have an inside pocket(yay), reflective strips are great when I'm cycling and I've gotten plenty of compliments on the coat and the colour(dark wreckage).

Best winter coat/raincoat around

This is my second Janelle coat.. The 14 was a good fit but the 16 allows for more winter layers, although it is a bit roomy in milder weather and the arms are slightly too long. It is waterproof but I suggest using twice as much Nickwax TX.DIRECT wash-in when you wash and reproof it. Love the style with it's longer tail at the back. Dark Wreckage with it's orange detailing is the best of the rather drab colours. The two poppers at each end of the hood tore out in the last coat and I had to use safety pins. Hope this doesn't happen this time. Still the best winter coat/raincoat around.

I love this Coat, not really tested it out in very wet weather yet but I’m happily surprised by how warm it is. Lovely length. One slight criticism is that the pockets aren’t deep enough, can only get a pair if thin gloves in. I’d be worried about putting my phone in the pocket in case it fell out and I certainly can’t get my purse in. Otherwise a great coat.

I am so in love with this coat, have had it for four years and it has run the test of time and then some. The only downside is the zippers in the pockets didn't last beyond 2 years but other than that I am incredibly happy with it. I wear it all winter long in the snow, rain, wind. And it is still such a good warm coat. Once it is ready to retire I will be sure to buy another one :)

Not as warm as I expected

I love the look of the coat and read all the reviews saying how warm it is so pushed the boat out and ordered black size 10. It fits quite big so think an 8 would have been better, but that size was sold out.
The coat is very nice to look at, great style and length and also waterproof. I added some faux fur to the hood as well.
Unfortunately I just don't find it toasty warm like others have suggested so I'm just a bit disappointed.

A lovely coat, light yet warm. I haven't warn it in the rain yet - don't want to spoil it!! I hadn't bought on line before so I was worried it might not fit but it was perfect. Really appreciated the Christmas discount - thank you.

Great Coat

I love this stylish Coat - have waited a while to be able to afford it! All in all I think it is value for money although it has not been tested in heavy rain yet. I found it true to size. My only slight reservation is the zip. Straight away I have had trouble getting the double zip to work. Fiddling to get it zipped is a bit frustrating and I’m hoping it may get easier with time.

Janelle Coat

I originally tried this coat on in a shop but they didn't have the colour i wanted so i ordered on line. The coat that arrived was so thin it was more like a mac; the coat i tried on in the shop felt snug and warm. I loved the length and it was well made but the one delivered was so thin. It was really disappointing.

Really happy with my new coat. Have one already and it has been brilliant. Still looking good after 4 years and still keeping out Welsh mountain weather!! New hood fits a lot closer and like new cuff detail with poppers. Have recommended this coat to lots of friends.

Superb!

Absolutely LOVE my new coat. It's toasty warm in the freezing cold and completely waterproof - been out walking the dogs in torrential rain and arrived back at the house with only my lower legs soaked! (should have had the waterproof trousers on.)
One of the major positives; the hood covers your head completely, even when as in my case, your hair takes up lots of space.
Best coat I've ever had!!

Best Buy for a long time

I bought this coat because of the length,I am fed up with getting so wet with shorter jackets. It has certainly proved that it is waterproof this last week also warm and snuggly

At Last!!!

At last, a waterproof coat, that doesn't make me look like a sack of potatoes. More importantly a coat that keeps me dry on my hour walk through a west coast rainy city with the wind bowing the rain at me in all directions. I also needed a coat that wouldnt be too warm as you get very warm walking for an hour. I've had LOADS of compliments. I would recommend you size down 1 or 2 sizes as the coats by seasalt are very big made. I'm an 18 dress but wearing a 14 coat with room to spare.

Posted by Laurie • 21st December 2018

Lovely

This is a very lovely, useful and smart coat. On my first day of wearing it a woman came over to me to ask me where I got it, as she thought it was super! I like the length - I don't like to leave my legs totally out in the rain and cold! I like the contrasting zip colour and the reflective strips on the inside of the cuffs (which will be seen when turned up). Style and protection from the rain and cold, what more could you want in a coat!

Fabulous Coat

Purchased the Janelle as I wanted a longer length Seasalt coat for the winter, and in particular dog walking, and this fits the bill perfectly. I've worn it several times over the past week, in the wind and rain, and it has kept be dry and warm. I'm 5ft 6ins, and a size 16, personally I think it is a true size, and you could add another layer if you wanted to.

During the frosty mornings I tend to wear a flat cap, and the hood fits nicely over the hat during those wet elements. Very on trend with the peaked hood!

The zipped vent on the back of the coat, looks very modern and super stylish. I selected the dark hellebore, it is a lovely shade of purple, not too dark.

I've received a number of positive comments on the coat, thanks Seasalt!

Posted by Violet • 19th December 2018

Lovely coat, dodgy zip!

I purchased this coat as l loved the one l got last year from seasalt, it’s warm, waterproof and comfortable to wear, however the zip was constantly sticking & wouldn’t do up properly so l ordered a new one and kept the old one for dog walking, now the zip on the new one is sticking already so not sure if the zips are just not as robust as the coats.....

Love my Janelle

I did think twice about buying initially as it was a little expensive. I needed a coat that would keep me dry, warm but not heavy to wear! The Janelle coat more than fits the bill and have certainly got my monies worth this last week! I bought the squid ink colour ~ a dark navy ~ and like the yellow trim. It's a nice length too, below knee level, and I didn't realise it had an internal phone pocket until I read another review ~ a nice feature! The zip is a little tricky sometimes, but not an issue for me. I've worn my coat on country walks and in town, and received lovely compliments. In all, a gorgeous weather proof coat.

Posted by Hate the rain girl! • 19th December 2018

Fabulous!

I am delighted with this coat. I did wonder if it was going to be bulky but it isn't .
In the Peak District we get extremes of weather and the coat is warm, waterproof and totally cosy.
I'm a 14 and I think the fit is just right. Roomy enough to wear a jumper underneath . You can alter the fit with the poppers on the side. I also like the slightly longer length.
Another great buy from Seasalt.

Great coat

Being a large lady, I was worried I’d look like the Michelin man - I don’t need any extra padding. But the wonderful thing about this coat is that it’s not bulky - I was amazed at how light it is. Yet it’s warm, a fabulous length, a great colour and waterproof - and I don’t feel suffocated by it. Really pleased.

Posted by Plus Points • 18th December 2018

Excellent

I love my coat knowing that it’s waterproof and wind proof is a bonus but I am not wearing just for rain. It’s warm and snug. The colour and trim colour is great. I am a little clumsy with the zip as I am with all zips.
But love the fact that its 2 way so great when I get in the car.
I’m 5ft 11” and it’s knee length at the front.
I will definitely buy other coats and jackets.

Posted by Sheila • 18th December 2018

Great coat apart from zip

I spent ages researching costs and this one seemed to be what I needed.
As a rain coat it is sufficiently waterproof which does the job.
The main niggle I have is that the zip can be really awkward to use. It is also worth noting the two main side pockets are not very deep, and the hood is not great when wearing your hair up.
That said, I'm happy with my purchase and hopefully won't mind the above the niggles so much as I'm just so glad to be dry.

Mostly good

Like the length & the fact it’s waterproof (especially for highland beaches). Couple of issues: mobile phone pocket is slightly impractical, however my biggest concern is the zip.. I have struggled to unzip the coat when the bottom zip has moved meaning you have to step in & out of the coat on occasions.

I did a lot of research to fi d a decent waterproof. That was completely waterproof and snuggly and long as I am so fed up with wet legs. And this is the one ! Difficult colour choice though. The black is a nice soft black and has love.y blue detail on zip and inside. The squid ink, dark navy, has the same detail in yellow. You can't see it much but I hate yellow. That was the decider for me. I like the bit of bright contrast. Would be nice with a little more as long as it isn't yellow!

Excellent buy

I have pretty much lived in this coat since I bought it. It has kept out all the Devon rain (lots), kept me warm on a recent Norwegian coastal cruise, with bitter winds, and my very large new mobile phone fits easily into the pocket. Yes the side pockets could be bigger, but my (not small) hands fit in them, as do car keys,, gloves etc. Lovely length too. Bought my usual size 10, and still room to fit a seriously thick fleece underneath. Very happy indeed.

I had previously bought this coat in a different colour but after a fault occurred with the zip once it was washed (about 10 months after I purchased it) I spoke to customer services who gave me a full refund. I was so impressed by the companies help that I decided to purchase the same coat again. It’s very good at keeping the wind out and really long which is great on a wet dog walk.

Delighted with the coat - arrived just in time for a wet and windy weekend in London. It's certainly waterproof and is so warm and light to wear, not at all bulky and heavy like other comparable coats.

not worth it

This coat is simply not worth the money. It's not particularly warm without layering, but worse--it's poorly constructed. I've had it for less than two months and the first time I went to use the cell phone pocket I noticed that the Velcro was half detached. Tonight the zipper on one of the pockets disintegrated and the rest of the stitching near this pocket is coming apart. I am very disappointed in this purchase.

I do like the length and it is waterproof though

Great coat and great colour

Would give 4.5 anchors but not an option. Arrived just in time for a weekend in the Highlands - warm and waterproof. Also great for standing at bus stops in a wind swept, soggy Edinburgh.

I have a couple of minor design issues:

When you turn the cuffs back and show the reflector strips the lining also shows so feels a little untidy.

As a previous customer commented, the mobile phone pocket is not practical as a two hand job and not deep enough.

The inside zip pocket is too small and zip catches, also not practical as you have to undo the coat to access it, my phone just about fits but would be better if was on other side and sits between the lining and zip facing/cover flap so you can access it without undoing the coat.

Main pockets are too small.

Finally it is a little snug around the hips.

Great coat

Such a great coat to keep you dry and warm on rainy, windy days. I am in between 8 and 10, ordered both size, and found 10 to be way too big. The 8 has a very nice, snug fit. Only thing that could be improved are the pockets - they could be deeper and bigger. It looks a bit bulgy when I keep my wallet and keys in them.

Recommend on bus no. 78

Admired snug waterproof look of coat on passenger boarding and alighting from bus into town. On finding her waiting at bus stop for return journey, plucked up courage to ask where she obtained it.
“I was encouraged by my daughter who had a seasalt catalogue. That was 5 years ago. But a new Seasalt shop has opened here, try it!”
Since then, having bought the latest version, I am delighted to have found my ideal length and cosy hood in one tough but light garment. Love the colour too.

Posted by Curlew • 11th December 2018

Warm and Dry

I've had this coat for a month or so now, and wear it regularly for dog walking. It definitely keeps me warm and dry, and the length is just right.

There are just a few design issues:

The hood could do with sitting further forward so that your face stays dry in the rain.

The internal mobile phone pocket could be a little wider, and remove the velcro strip. I find it's very fiddly to get the phone in and out with one hand.

The pockets really should be bigger.

Other than these issues the coat serves its purpose well.

It’s a first

Oh my days... All other rain coats/winter coats in my life have been frauds up until this point and I’ve only just realized! This is THE cosiest, most waterproof and most wind proof coat I’ve every put on! I actually don’t ever want to take it off. It’s smart, yet practical and find myself perfectly toasty in just a Seasalt dress and leggings under it.. no need for bulky jumpers that are too hot to wear when you arrive .. I am totally in love.. I wouldn’t normally spend so much on one item of clothing .. but oh boy I’m glad I did.. I love the length too.. just below my welly tops so the rain drips below not in!

Very happy I received my Janelle coat at the start of what felt like the first proper week of winter. It had a baptism of fire on a day with a weather warning, with heavy rain being whipped around by strong winds. In my Janelle coat I was snug and dry. Not a drop of rain found its way inside.
It isn't the heaviest and warmest coat and I will have to either layer up or switch to another coat on sub-zero days. But I like the attention to detail, like the reflector strips and the pocket for a mobile phone.. Very happy with the purchase.

Zip problems

Bought this in store as a treat, hoping it would last well. However the zips are very lightweight and not as durable as the coat. First the zip clasp from the back disappeared very early on, then the plastic teeth of the pocket zip detached.
Otherwise the coat is immaculate and could pass as unworn after nearly 1.5 years.

This is my first Seasalt purchase and admittedly the first expensive coat I have ever bought and I am in love. I was a bit hesitent because of the price but you can tell it is made with quality and love and I know I will get so much wear from this. I was also worried about the length because I am only 5 foot 3 and nothing long ever fits me right but this coat again is perfect, it lands just below my knee ( I got a size 10). It is also so warm and comfy and I am so happy with it I am already thinking about buying the other Seasalt coat I have my eye on.

Adequate

For anyone over 5'8", it's a good mid-length coat, with plenty of room for layers underneath, and the outer pockets are at just the right height. Drawbacks: (1) cuffs don't cinch in far enough (2) hood is far too shallow for proper rain/wind protection (3) hood is detachable (4) pockets are flimsy and too small (5) It fastens the wrong way round; every other women's raincoat I've owned closes left -over-right, but this one does not.

The only reason I didn't give this coat a 5 star was I'm not very keen on the colour and the only reason I chose that colour was because I wasn't keen on the other colours!

My ink coloured Janelle coat is definitely beautiful, waterproof and has a perfect fit. Great lenght and very happy with the larger sizes. But I'm a bit disappointed because to me it isn't a real wintercoat; No teddy or other warm lining in the sleeves. So everything is warm but my arms get the chills. I would defenitely recommend Seasalt also to line the sleeves with teddycloth.

The coat is good and waterproof. It has several zipped pockets and inside pockets which is useful. It could be improved by having adjustable cuffs and more leeway to adjust the waist. This would make it warmer and less draughty in the wind.

Fab Coat..

I wanted this coat for a while for rainy dog walks but I could not decide whether to buy a 12 or a 14 (I am 5’ 8, generally a 12-14 on top and 14 bottom) so went with the 14. Sadly it was too big so ordered a 12 which is great. I can fit a reasonably thick rollneck jumper underneath. This is an autumn / spring coat, rather than a winter coat, which is exactly what I wanted.. Still kept me warm in 4 degrees with sleet while walking. The only thing (a personal thing) is that I would have preferred it not quite so long at the back. Front comes to my knees. Great company to deal with, super staff & easy returns process.

I really love this, particularly the inside pockets (although you could fit in another 2 inside pockets at least) as it reminds me of my well loved old Barbour. Although I live in London, don't under estimate how fierce the winds can be in built up areas and this has performed very well. It keeps me warm and dry while the rain just runs off. I particularly like the fact that you can put the hood on and attach it to the coat while wearing it, very handy.

Janelle raincoat

I love the coat and had reordered a size bigger as the first one was too small. The replacement was badly made, the lining was caught in some stitching and didn’t hang correctly and the hem line was puckered and uneven . I was really disappointed, but I have ordered a replacement and there was no quibble about that, but it obviously missed quality control and I have had to wait yet another week to get my coat.

Dear Marti,
Thanks for your review of the Janelle Coat, great to hear you love the coat. Sorry about your previous experience with the coat, this isn’t the usual high quality I’d expect from a Seasalt product. I’ll pass your comments to the relevant team for their attention.
Best wishes, Seasalt

Perfect dog walking coat!

Having got a rescue dog in the summer, I suddenly realised I didn't have the right clothes for dog walking throughout the winter months. I found this coat and it's perfect. Cosy, waterproof, attractive, well designed and nicely made. Turns out my sister's coat that she wears all the time is the same one and she's had it five years and is still delighted with it.

Perfect All-weather Coat

At last I am warm and dry thanks to my Seasalt coat. For the last 12 years walking around in the West, I have arrived soggy and dripping but no more, now I arrive warm and cozy. The extra length means no more wet thighs, it is the perfect autumn/winter coat and the fit is perfect too. The hood is a snug fit but the brim keeps the rain off my face and the fit means it does not blow off. I couldn't be happier.

Long coats like these are difficult to find..The sleeves are a little to long for me,I purchased size 18 and I am 5ft4ins. The size is on the generous side,but you can adjust the poppers on the outside at the waist..I would recommend it has a good warm lining ,and should be waterproof as other seasalt Coats I have are

Fabulous coat, let down a bit my zip

This coat is warm, it seems to meet the weather well despite not being overly thick. I love the length, I have dry legs after a downpour. It’s probably the best coat I’ve ever had- aside from the pocket zips, for a coat of the price I’m a little disappointed they only lasted a season and now can’t be zipped closed

Another Janelle? Yes!

Wihing to replace a jaded Janelle coat and having put on a little weight, I tried another Seasalt offering but it just didn't feel right so I ordered another Janelle...So glad I did. I like the design improvements, its cosiness and style but most of all I appreciate the length, for warmth and because I favour long caridigans and tunics in winter. I'm sure it will serve me for a long time, as indeed my old one has!

Excellent Coat for mobility scooter use!

I am a young disabled user of a mobility scooter, I walk (scoot?) my dog every day around parks and fields in all weathers, and I have been looking for a warm coat that properly covers my legs and still looks good.
Tall order!?
This coat is roomy, even so I went up a size and can wear even warm poncho jumpers inside with ease. It zips easily in both directions, and there's a handy zip at the base of the back to help with those of you who might need to lengthen your stride a bit.
I'm 5'3", it comes below my knees when standing, longer at the back and when I sit it is really comfortable, and long enough to cover all my thighs and just over my knees.
I've been rained on and stayed really dry, the hood is enormous, and kept my face protected.
Warm upper section, very cosy, and the lower section was quite sufficient for autumn gales.
If I could improve it for 5 anchor rating:
- it could do with some means of shaping to stop it from falling constantly in my eyes - but I'd rather too big than too small
- some fitted cuffs inside the sleeves would help with warmth
A great coat, hooray for Seasalt creating a coat that I, as a disabled mum, can wear and feel good, warm and not totally embarrass my child:-)

Perfect dog walking coat for the Scottish dreich. Adjustable waist poppers, half fur/half quilted lining, not bulky, 100% waterproof and pretty windproof too. My sister has one and never stops wearing it. I first got 14 and changed it for a 12. Really nice design, lots of useful pockets that don't bulk out the coat and the navy versions has lovely yellow details and reflective strips for night time walks.

Literally the most lovely casual coat I've ever bought. Its super cosy, long enough to keep my legs warm too, and having got caught in a heavy rain shower the other day I can confirm its amazingly waterproof! I've had so many positive comments from people and I've only owned it a week - super stylish. It'll be great for the school run when I don't have hands free for an umbrella, and also for standing at the side of the football pitch!!

I bought a size 12, generally being between a 12 & 14 myself and there's still room for a warm jumper underneath.

Posted by Ann • 11th October 2018

Almost perfect....

I bought my coat in the sale last year and love it. Not sure if it has the changes some people aren’t keen on. The improvement I’d suggest is that the fleece lining could be changed for a zipable lining so that it would be less hot in the milder but wet weather. Then it would be perfect. This may increase the price point, or sell separately. Other than that it’s the best dog walking coat I’ve had.

I love my Janelle coat. I am usually a size 8/10 so wasn't quite sure what size to go for as I like to have a little room for bigger jumpers underneath. I went for the 8 in the end and it's perfect. It would be nice if the zip was the same colour as the coat (black) rather than blue. And sometimes the zip can be a little sticky but otherwise no complaints. I'm looking forward to wearing it on winter morning dog walks.

Shrunken hood!

Further to my earlier review, I've now realised that the hood design has also been changed. It is smaller round the face with a silly peaked cap-type front in place of the previous full wide hood which was great for wild, windy days. Honestly, Seasalt, if it ain't broke don't fix it!

Design has changed but not for the better - stupid fluorescent strip!!

I've had a Janelle coat for a couple of years. It's warm and waterproof but a horrible dull purple colour which I hate. So I thought I'd update to a new "dark wreckage" coloured version. It arrived today but alas the design has changed. The cuffs have lost the Velcro strips that keep them warm and watertight. Worse, the hood now has a luminous strip on the back of the head like the flourescent armbands we wore to go to primary school on dark winter mornings. It looks ridiculous on an adult woman. So disappointed. The coat's going back 🙁.

I just love love love this coat. I live on the sea front on the northwest coast so the wind can get pretty rough some days. This coat took storm Ali in its stride and lived up to its reputation. I didn’t feel cold or wet when walking to walk in the driving rain. The rain just bounced off! It’s got a secret inside pocket for your mobile phone also it has a fur lined collar and hood so it’s really cosy too. It’s long enough to cover a skirt so you don’t arrive with wet clothes (bonus). Would definately recommend it to anyone who is undecided.

I don’t drive and am forever getting soaked while pushing my little one around in her pushchair. This jacket will be an absolute godsend! It’s a perfect length (I’m 5’5”) and the fit is generous so no problems wearing this over multiple layers. I’m absolutely certain this will save me from the bitter North Sea wind that rips through Mersea Island in the winter too which is great. It’s not deeply padded but still very warm, the breathable construction means you don’t overheat in it either so it’s just perfect for a range of weather scenarios. The squid ink colourway is gorgeous and goes with everything. A really well made and sturdy coat that I’m sure will last. Very happy!

I have used this coat for around 2 weeks now. It absolutely does it’s job as far as being waterproof is concerned. It’s long so really does keep you dry. I really wanted this coat to work for me because it looks lovely on but the hood is way too small -doesn’t cover my head (and i’ve a small frame) especially if i wear a low messy bun or a ponytail. The coat is also not warm enough. I appreciate i do feel the cold but we are only just approaching autumn. It’s a no from me unfortunately especially as it was a present. Awkward 😢

Although I’ve given the coat 5 anchors, it’s my second one. The first one’s pocket zips and centre zip broke and the coat was replaced. Excellent customer service. Admittedly, I use the coat every single day in the winter, dog walking. However, I’m not so keen on the new coats reflective cuffs and you can’t alter them as well as the original design. I have small wrists and the new coat’s buttons don’t go small enough. Having said this, there’s a reason I didn’t change design. It’s as warm as toast, waterproof but breathable and the longer back means you don’t get wet back legs when walking in the rain.

This is a great jacket. I've been pleased every day I've worn it. I'm on the busty end of my size and still find it roomy enough to fit plenty of warm clothes underneath and still feel comfortable. It looks great and is extremely well made and worth the price.
Despite the numerous comments about the pockets I think the positioning and size is perfect to keep your hands warm and toasty as you walk. But if you are busty like I am I can't really use the back domes as it makes the whole jacket ride high. The internal chest pocket is great for bits and pieces. I find the internal cell phone pocket not great for my phone which is an iPhone 7+ so pretty large but it just fits.
I'm extremely happy with this purchase. I love it!
Extremely happy.

Just what I wanted!

This jacket is a perfect mix of waterproof and cosy. Great length, measurements Seasalt list helped a great deal to get the right size. I am normally a 12/14 erring to a 14 on the bottom and the 12 I ordered fits great.

Not sure what the fuss is about the pockets mentioned in other reviews??? The jacket I received has ample pockets. Glad I ignored the ‘pocket reviews’ and purchased anyway. The pocket inside the jacket fits my keys and iPhone. Other pockets on front fit my hands (with a hand knit glove easily). Plenty of room for my purse too. Forecast this weekend is for a rainy windy Wellington - looking forward to using my new coat! PS that was a speedy delivery you arranged!

Lovely coat

Altho I bought it in spring, I need a warm raincoat for the winter so I snapped it. I will used it for everything wet, especially walking the dog late at night. i am quite thrilled with it. It has a nice straight line so that I can easily wear a sweater with it. It is comfy to wear and feels lovely. Roll on autumn..

Janelle coat

I am very pleased with my Janelle coat. I exchanged it for the next size up which fitted perfectly (I am either a size 18 or 20 usually and the size 18 is right for me.)
It feels warm and storm -proof so I have put it away for the colder weather. The shorter length suits me and I am looking forward to wearing it.

Wonderful coat for chilly rainy dog-walking mornings

I love this coat! It's a very well thought-through garment: smart enough to wear into the city on a cold and rainy day and rugged enough for winter dog-walking/beach/park/trail. So will be great for travel. Lightweight, warm, and very comfortable to wear. It's generously (but not baggily) true to size (I'm a standard UK14, EU42) and I can fit two layers underneath. I think the pockets are perfectly fine and appreciate the two inside ones. More praise here for the quick delivery to Melbourne. Mine was ordered on Tuesday evening and arrived the following Sunday afternoon.

Thank you so much for the extremely quick delivery to Melbourne, Australia. I placed my order on Thursday and received my coat on Monday. WOW!

Gorgeous and warm!

I am thoroughly impressed with this coat! I live in Canada and am moving to the East Coast, where there are lots of storms and rainy days. I realized I needed to invest in a solid raincoat. This fits the bill perfectly. I was worried the size 8 would be too large because I noticed this style does not come in a size 6, but I think this is a true North American "small." I'm 5'6" (125lbs) and it's a fantastic length--looks stylish and is warm and cozy without being too warm. Also, shipping was very speedy. Can't wait to test this out this fall!

Love the coat but extremely disappointed!

I have just received the Janelle coat and I love it - it fits perfectly. However, I was disappointed to find that there is a fault with the reflective strip on the one sleeve. I called customer services to see how I could get a replacement/exchange - to be frank, I was disappointed at their response and inflexibility. The coat is not cheap and with Seasalt's reputation, I would have expected better quality control and better customer service!

Great coat - but

My first coat from Seasalt and I love the fit. Having tested it through the winter, it is warm comfortable and weatherproof, has great little touches like reflective strips and coloured zips. But why such diddly pockets? If I'm using a hat and gloves I'm struggling to stow them if I stop anywhere when I'm out and I'm really surprised you didn't consider this. If I'm headed up to London I like to keep my personal belongings on me and not take a handbag, and it is not always convenient to carry a rucksack if i'm on a shortish walk. My Berghaus jacket of 20 years has it nailed when it comes to pockets so this is why I'm only giving you a 4 anchor rating. It is a shame as it is a great coat otherwise.

pockets

The coat is really good (I tested in the Spring, only in short, not heavy rains). Do not get wet. However, he has one very big drawback for me. Pockets, or rather their size. Inner - is a joke. It is special for a mobile - it fit 2/3 of mine and I do not have a large one. A pocket for keys (???) is for a dwarf, nothing will enter. External - they fit bags for my pet, or a packet of small tissues. In this way, when you go on holiday and you feel like a walk on the beach, you MUST take a backpack or a bag with you. No sense at this price. Disappointing.

Almost Absolutely Perfect

Took this coat with me for three weeks travelling around very cold, wet Ireland. It was deliciously warm, absolutely waterproof. Those were the two most important things, and Janelle did not disappoint.

Couple of minor issues, however: the zip is quite fiddly to get started and would only click in and work correctly about half the time. Other times if I was in a hurry and after several attempts couldn’t do it up, I had to clutch the coat around me which is not ideal.... The outside pockets are too small, too high and too uncomfortable to keep your hands in because of these factors (and the zip, which although necessary is a bit annoying). The inside velcro pocket was too small for my phone BUT the inside concealed vertical pocket was handy for quick access to my credit card.

Perfect!

I needed a jacket that I new would protect me from the elements for our trip around Scotland over the past week. In South Africa, we don't really cater for fashionable waterproof/windproof clothing. I didn't want to look sporty every day, I wanted to at least look stylish on the trip. I found this jacket and it definitely seemed perfect. I used the live chat to find out some additional measurements and landed up choosing a size 10. I ordered it in South Africa and had it delivered to a CollectPlus point in Scotland (near to where we were staying). Picked it up just after we landed.... I was super nervous to try it on. I am usually a size 10/12 and it was a PERFECT fit - even with a jersey underneath it. I was SO happy and SO relived. They say that the arm length was increased - I am glad they did because if they were any shorter, they would be too short! The length was perfect. The front just touched my knee - I am 5 ft 7 inch tall (170cm). The hood fits well and adjusts easily. The pockets are a bit small, but still worked fine. The inside pocket is a bit small. It fit my phone (Samsung S8), but I couldn't close it unfortunately. Other than that, I love my jacket! Even though the price is rather high (especially with our poor ZAR Exchange Rate), it was definitely worth it! An investment for sure... hope to use it for many years to come!

Lovely

Got my coat yesterday. Aside from customs and duties, I am really pleased with this coat. I was unsure of sizing, but had plenty of help with online chat. The coat is long and gorgeous. Not too heavy and perfect for Canadian spring and autumn weather. Yes, the pockets could be a little bigger, but they don't offend me. My only thing is that it is a little snug around the shoulders because mine are slightly broad. Other than that, a 10 is pretty true to size.

FINALLY!

Finally, the sleeves are long enough and the skirt part doesn't fan out as wide as the Jannelle 1 - well done Seasalt. I love this coat, would love it even more if it was more affordable and had more and deeper pockets. The inside pocket is too small for my phone and doesn't zip up to keep keys safe when I bend over. The hood is a strange shape though; very wide, made for big hair or maybe I just have a very small head. So, one more star to strive for. Roomy fit

Narrow fit

This is the perfect coat - except that it is narrow at the hips. I'm in the United States and followed the measurements carefully, but there wasn't a measurement for the hips. As a result, I have a coat that I can't wear fully closed, and it was too expensive to mail it back. I'm heartbroken and wish that I could have one that fits properly.

Great Winter Coat

I bought this coat to replace another Janelle coat - it's the perfect Winter coat, warm, waterproof and stylish. I also like the changes made to the style since my last coat: reflective bits, hood peak and longer sleeves. The sleeves have been made longer to allow them to be turned up to show reflective cuffs and unfolded they are plenty long enough for my long arms. One change I don't like though - the pockets are smaller! I don't know why the decision was made to make the pockets smaller than the last version of Janelle. Especially as it is a winter coat, it's helpful to have big pockets to stuff in gloves and maybe a hat. Still deserves a 5/5 though overall

After years of buying north face and only lasting 12 months on average I wa loking for something that would keep me waterproof and warm on our not so warm climate nowadays. A friend recommended me to check out Sesalt coat as her have lasted her 4 or more years and like me she walks her dogs everyday in all weathers. I bought this after reading the review as it was long and waterproof. I got a 14 which was a good fit and surprising long just past my knee's which was a nice change to keep my legs warm when we had snow recently. Im hoping i have this for years to come as well.

I had the old design and loved it! I wanted to get another one to have as spare when i had to wash mine. Was disappointed to receive an 'updated' design which has a reflective stripe at the back of the hood and in the inner cuff. The sleeves are much longer and bigger and does not have the velcro cuff that is useful in the rain. Unfortunately, only 3 stars for the design.

I've been lusting after this coat since I saw a colleague of mine wearing the red version that was last season range. I bought the black and have found it to be light and warm, and - in the recent freezing winds and belting rain have found myself as snug as a bug in a rug whilst walking the dog. I love the fleece lined hood especially, and the little area around the chin that means you can tuck your chin in out of the cold - is a lovely touch. Its just a perfect coat.

Great Coat

I’ve been looking for a waterproof coat for a while and having recently discovered Seasalt tried on a few from their range. The Janelle coat fitted well and was a good length so that was the style I chose. I’ve just returned from a short break in Rome where the coat ha# been well tested. It kept me dry while exploring the city on a very rainy day and kept me warm when the snow arrived. I don’t usually like wearing a hood but this was large enough to keep my hair dry and it stayed in place. I like the fact that it’s detachable. The coat has roomy pockets and a practical two-way zip. The only change I would make would be that the black coat had a black zip, rather than blue but that is a very minor point.

An amazing coat for winter

This coat has been wonderful this winter. The length means it keeps your legs warm, is very waterproof and keeps the wind out. On these snowy days it has been so good.

A good coat

Just bought one of these from a local shop, I have worn it for the first time today to brave the Beast from the East to walk a dog. 4 anchors given because it isn't as warm as I thought it would be, I will have to add another layer, also I agree with other comments re pockets, no room for mobile (essential for dog walking in bad weather), I took a birthday card to post, I had to tuck it under the coat. The coat did keep me good and dry though in very snowy conditions

Delighted with this coat - warm, cosy, good quality, great length and stylish. I debated sizes between 10 and 12 and went for a 10 as the size guide suggested the measurements were quite generous. Glad I did as it fits perfectly. It's barely been off my back since!

Janelle Raincoat

This is the waterprooof raincoat i was looking for. Comfortable, warm and guaranteed waterproof. My only complaint would be that the pockets could have a wider opening and be deeper to accommodate a set of keys and mobile phone. Otherwise it was just what i had been searching for. One last thing, buy a size bigger as not based on European sizing.

Janelle Coat

Love almost everything about this coat -fab colour (love the orange zip), great length too (I'm short, just 5' 2" - so the coat covers more of me!!). The coat is lovely and warm and light to wear and has been worn regularly in the wet and windy weather we have been experiencing.
However, the finish on the bottom edge of the coat isn't quite up the quality of the rest of the coat - the edge seems to have some over sewing threads which are now beginning to come unstitched and I have discovered today, one small part of the lining which has "missed" stiches!! I'm thinking it might need to be returned???
I also cannot understand why the reflective strips are hidden??? Am I wearing the coat incorrectly?? should I always have my sleeves turned up? Because the coat is absolutely waterproof puddles form in the turn-ups on the sleeves!!
The hidden strip under the hood means that if I am out at night I ALWAYS have to have the hood up in order to be seen from the back - I DON'T want to always walk about with my hood up??
This is not meant to be a negative review - I absolutely love this coat!!

Great coat, great service

I was fed up with rain & wind penetrating my Trespass coat on journeys to and around work by public transport.. Amazed by 36 hour delivery (on the free standard delivery) & no creasing so looks like you've sorted that. Love the length of the coat on me (I'm 5'3"). The fit is a bit big but that means I can easily get a suit jacket under it. It's definitely rainproof & windproof with full length fastenings so although thinner than other winter coats I've had, keeps you warmer. I like that the pockets are zippered and the zips are properly fitted so don't catch on the fabric and jam.
A few thoughts on the pockets that you may like to look at for the future? The pockets are a little on the small side compared to some coats to take commuting essentials of travel card, work pass, keys, 2 phones, gloves, tissues (I prefer not to carry a handbag on lonely dark streets in case you're thinking that's what I should bought instead of a coat...). I am concerned that the pocket fabric is not sturdy enough. The velcro'd pocket in the bottom feels a bit risky - I think it's designed for a phone but is a bit small & given the location, I think a phone could fall out if you were leaning over. Maybe this type of pocket on inside breast on one side4 & still keep the other zippered inside breast pocket?

I bought this coat in dark wreckage to replace my previous seasalt Janelle which has a broken zip. It is lovely coat and I like the improvements: longer sleeves, discreet reflector strips and a better fitting hood. I ordered by post, chose the same size as previous but the coat looks and feels a bit big. It’s a good wam coat, keeps me dry in the rain and miraculously, the hood stayed up in fierce wind. The colour is very attractive.

Lovely coat, but sadly didn't suit me :-(

The Janelle Coat is absolutely beautiful and very well made. I was looking for a warm & waterproof winter coat and fell in love with this model from Seasalt. As I wanted another color than black and dark blue, I went for "Dark Wreckage" and think the orange zip is a real little eye catcher :-) Delivery was lightning speed and I was very impressed when unpacking the item. Unfortunately it was too big for me (I ordered a size 10 as I wanted to have enough space for layering warm clothes and jumpers underneath). I think a size 8 would have been fine too, as the cut is quite roomy in my opinion. Nevertheless, the style of the coat just didn't suit me at all. As I am on the shorter side, it was too long for me. Also, the color (which is absolutely beautiful!!!) didn't suit me and sadly I had to send it back, which is why I only gave "4 Ankers" in this review.
Products and service are very good and also returning an item is easy peasy and refunds are processed quickly. Still, I'd recommend this coat as it is a real gem! I have purchased Seasalt products in the past and surely will do so in the future :-)

I bought this cost last spring and was delighted with sizing, weight and performance In rain and wind.

A month ago another stud dislodged, leaving another small hole. I think the studs are too heavy for the fabric. Otherwise, a wonderful coat.

Great coat

II had been looking for a nice, long wintercoat that is colorful and not 'puffy' for a long long time when a friend told me about Seasalt. It was scary to order an expensive coat from overseas without being able to fit, but I did anyway. I am really happy with this coat! I absolutely love the color, and the fit is perfect, exactly as was stated in the measurement table (size 20). It is water- and windproof, but not as warm as I expected. In temperatures around 0 celsius I would wear a fleece underneath. But for most days of the Dutch winter it is sufficient, and I'd rather have to wear an extra layer on some days than be sweaty on most other days. As was mentioned by others, the pockets are really small, It would have been nice to have bigger pockets. I do like the pockets on the inside though. I also like the way you can tighten the hood, without having the cords around your chin. I was expecting to be able to adjust the waist to show a little bit more of my waist, but that adjustment is only marginal. One of the buttons fell off when I opened the coat the first time, but the nice people at customer service sent me replacement-buttons promptly.... Overall, I am very happy, but there is room for improvement: bigger pockets, more bright colors, more waist-adjustment.

Faulty Zip on Pocket.

I bought this Raincoat around thirteen months ago, and enjoyed wearing it this Winter - couldn't do last Winter as I was ill for three months so it didn't get worn then.

Unfortunately, I am now having problems closing the Zip on the Left Hand Pocket which I'm very disappointed with considering the Raincoat has not been worn much.

In fact, the main Zip at the front of the R/Coat is also a problem at times.

I did expect this Raincoat to last for years given it's price, and perceived quality.

Perfect for Scottish winter!!!

I can't believe that I've lived in Scotland for over a decade without having this coat! It's just perfect! I waited a month before writing a review as I actually wanted to wear it and see if is as good as it's described. I can happily say that it's been tried and tested in all sorts of weather eventualities! From strong winds to heavy rain and snow. It has never failed to keep me fully dry and warm.

I was tired of having cheap (and not so cheap!) Coats and jackets that weren't good enough for this crazy Scottish weather. This cost is an investment and I was happy to pay the full price for it because it seems like good quality and also gives me the peace of mind of coming with a lifetime guarantee.

It ticks absolutely all the boxes. It is warm, rainproof AND windproof, it looks classic and not like the typical outdoors hiking jacket which means it can also be worn for both formal and more causal events. It has so many beautiful and well thought details such as really cute nautical buttons, a removable hood, a lovely dash of colour in the zip and lining and some great reflective strips (excellent for those dark winter days!). The adjustable buttons on the sides of the waist make it look will fitted and not boxy.

I'd read some reviews saying that it is too long and I thought that it was gonna look massive on me (I'm 5.1 ft and a size 8) but I actually really like the length. It means that my legs stay dry and warm when there wind plus horizon rain! It is quite roomy so perhaps ladies who are in between size 6-8 may find it a bit on the larger side, but I actually really like that it gives me room to layer up underneath if need be. So even if it was made in a size 6 I would still probably have gone forever the 8.

I agree with some of the other reviews in that perhaps a wider range of brighter colours should be available (red, green, yellow?) But I think I would still choose the dark blue as it is a classic, timeless colour.

Thanks Seasalt. I should also add that he costumer service is beyond excellent! Every time I emailed a question someone got back to me straight away.

Now thinking about my Seasalt summer coat and that'll be all seasons covered! :)

WHAT A WONDERFUL WINTER COAT!

Fantastic value for money, great design (although I would like the hood to be deeper). This is the most versatile coat I have for dog walking ... it has been greatly admired ... thanks for such a thoughtful all-encompassing design and quality. My only suggestion for change is could you make three different colours for next winter ... this coat is all that it says!

Gorgeous coat!

I got it as a Christmas present and I absolutely love this coat! It's very warm, has zipped pockets, fits me perfectly and is just the thing I need here in North Norfolk, where it's either windy and/or rainy most days!

Fantastic for Vancouver winter!

I bought this coat in the UK when I visited in September, and now that winter has set in, I am wearing it twice a day to walk my dog on the beaches and in the woods. It is perfect! Long, cosy, waterproof, love the interior zip pocket for my phone.....all in all, so good that I am ordering a second! I am the envy of my friends!

Almost perfect!

Probably the best dog-walking coat I've ever owned. Really pleased with the waterproofness, the warmth, the fit and comfort. The thing that would make it absolutely perfect would be larger pockets. Anyone who walks dogs knows that you always have stuff - leads, treats, balls etc along with keys and phone, and if you hate walking with a bag, as I do, then large pockets really help. Please think about this Seasalt!

Just wonderful

First off, kudos to Seasalt for offering bigger sizes - thank you! This coat is just perfect. It's so warm but wonderfully light weight and cut just right. It's a pleasure to wear. The cut is just right, the fabric is a joy to the touch and I feel totally gorgeous in it. Makes you want to go out in the wild weather. Thank you!

Great coat for wet winter weather

I bought this in the same size as a lighter-weight Seasalt raincoat I have but it fits a little big, I could probably have gone down a size. Lengthwise I'm 5ft7 and the longer length is perfect for me, long but not too long., about 2 inches above the top of my boots.

Great coat, perfect for the cold, wet, windy weather I get in the Netherlands where I live. Only niggle is I wish the pockets were bigger: the 2 exterior pockets are shallow enough that I don't dare leave anything in them (such as my bus card) in case it falls out, and my hands only just fit. Likewise the interior pocket that I think is intended for a mobile phone could do with being larger, my Motorola G4 plus is a very tight fit.

Nice coat, but.....

This was my second Janelle purchase as I fancied a change of colour. My first purchase was perfect, but I had not been aware that the Janelle had changed since my previous purchase. I didn’t like the cuffs or the back of the hood which now has reflective strips. The hood didn’t fit as well and the pockets were nowhere near as deep. The coat felt lighter in weight and overall didn’t feel as good a quality. Because I had been expecting the coat to be the same as my previous one, the differences were niggling away so I decided to return the coat.

Fab coat for commuting

I need a coat that will keep me warm on station platforms, in freezing waiting rooms, and on the mile walk to work and back. This coat meets the demands. I bought my usual size which is generous, but gives room for a fleece when it's below zero some mornings. The reflective strips are useful on dark roads. If I could improve it, I would love a drawstring around the middle to trap upper body warmth. Long enough to wear with skirts, and excellent windproofing, waterproofing, and it's breathable. As good as my expensive high tech hiking coat I wear on the Beacons.

Nice piece of Cornwall in German winter, but not warm enough

I like Cornwall and I like seasalt, so I bought myself "a piece of Cornwall". I like the fitting for womens hips, but sorry, this coat is not warm enough for "continental" winter. Walking one hour in 0 degree centigrade, my upper arms were freezing. The pockets are tiny, just enough for my hands and a single piece of handkerchief, but were to put my key and gloves. So this long coat is just fitting to spring and autumn, but not for winter in Germany, sorry.

Disappointingly

Having previously purchased this coat a few years ago, I fancied a change of colour so is my second coat of this style. I was therefore very disappointed when the zip on the pocket recently broke. I have now reverted back to my older coat which is still going strong.

Lovely, lovely coat

I love this coat, also because it actually fits me lengthwise AND in the sleeves! I'm 5'9 and find it hard to find clothes that are not too short when they have the right fit (I'm slim). The buttons to make the coat a more tailored shape are great and help with keeping warm! The only thing that could have been done better is the depth of the main pockets, another 3 cm would be nice to really be able to sink into them and the inside pockets could be slightly wider! But they work as they are so I still give 5 anchors!

Beautiful coat

I purchased this beautiful coat after deliberating for more than a month as the price is robust. Tried it , fitted perfectly, couldn't be more happy about it. Be aware on the shape of the jacket because the waist is not adjustable.
Now the day has come to test the waterproofing and it was not disappointing. Chic, stylish, waterproof, windproof and warm is what i wanted and got from this coat.
As the coat went through a lot of rain that day, i let it dry itself on a hanger for two days. The next day i had to wear it i notice some stains on the sleeves on my way to work . I took it off when i got in my office and the stains were everywhere from the hoodie to the length of the coat . Yes, they were water stains.
So disappointed i had to return it and i was afraid to order another one as the Garment Technologists had to review the coat and this is a process of approximately 14 days followed by a refund.

Yessss!

At 5”8 I was reluctant to buy this coat. My last Janelle was lovely but didn’t fit brilliant, the poppers for the waist were half way up my back, and wasn’t very flattering. This Janelle, however, is fantastic, I am absolutely delighted, it’s long and fits in all the right places, nipped in at the waist and the poppers sit where they should. The addition I love best are the double zips. I went out in the coat today, typical Cornish weather blowy, wet and bitterly cold, and the coat was fantastic against the elements. Shall definitely recommend as a bonus buy for tall people. Thankyou, this purchase certainly worthwhile with the lifetime warranty as well. Thankyou.

Highly Recommend

I think from the previous review, clarification is needed around sizing and length. I’m 5’3” and a size 10. The size 10 is a perfect fit. The back reaches just below my mid-calve and the front is on my knees., which I was delighted about. I love Seasalt jackets, but find all rather too short for the Cornish weather, which I walk in daily. It’s a fabulously warm coat with the usual superb quality. It’s very light in weight, yet so cosy, so you won’t need layer up to stay warm, which is great if one walks a lot. This is a coat for life.

waaayy too long

I really wanted this coat. Saw it online and then went specially to Lewes to buy it, but .... when I tried it on I was so disappointed. Its sooo long especially at the back. The front is just about OK but the rather unnecessary longer back was nearly skimming my ankles. Well I know I'm not tall, 5' 2" but neither am I abnormally short, I know lots of people my height especially older women, I'm 60, not that ancient, It was just too long. So I'm afraid I didnt buy. If only there were shorter lengths in Seasalt. I also have this problem with a lot of the dresses. So disappointing.

Posted by Julie C • 22nd November 2017

Returned too long at back

Sadly returned this coat in black because it was too long, I am 5'3'' and this would have been fine except for the longer back section. However, everything else about the coat was lovely especially the detailing such as blue piping on the zip. Sorry not to see any similar alternatives in black but cut straight across at the back.

If anyone at your factory could just cut the back section off I'd buy it again!

Favourite coat ever!

I honestly couldn't be happier with this coat! It is warm, waterproof, stylish and so comfortable, literally the best coat I've ever bought. It is roomy, so great for wearing a jumper underneath in the winter. I have larger arms and the coat has plenty of space in the arms as well as the body. I also love the length, it will protect my legs from the cold too! Excellent design and super comfortable, love the addition of the reflective strips inside the sleeves and on the hood, brilliant for night time walks. Well done Seasalt, I will recommend this coat to all.

Loving the new Janelle

This is my second Janelle coat (finally had to retire my old one) and in the new updated style. Even more stylish, love the detail of the blue zip and the reflectors. Not quite perfect as I have to agree with other comments that the pockets don't seem as deep or roomy as before and still think the hood could be a bit deeper BUT it's still 5* because it's fantastic coat and value for money and I'll keep on buying it. I spent more a couple of years ago on a Didrikson and this is much better. As always Seasalt service was excellent. In the UK at the moment we seem to have turned into a nation of know the price of everything and the value of nothing. Seasalt cuts through all of that and you score 5/5 on everything. Well done to a British business.

Snuggly and warm for winter

Great fitting, warm coat. I'm 5'7 and it covers me from head to just below knees (slightly longer at the back). It's slightly tapered in at the waist and I like the poppers at the side which are adjustable. Unlike coats with drawstring waists, I don't look like a bag of potatoes tied in the middle! The Dark Wreckage colour is gorgeous and I love the red trim. I'm usually a size 16 but bought a 14 which still gives me plenty of room for a jumper underneath when it gets really cold.

Janelle II coat

This is a great coat and so very well made, I love it and think it will become a favourite. My only concern is that the hood is too large. It has drawstrings to tighten around the face, and I like the peak, but it's so big it balloons out around my head and looks weird. The hood is the reason for 4 rather than 5 anchors.

This is an ok long coat, so so and definitely too expensive, too cold for winter... it is probably just for a day on the rain which happens in summer or autum but not in winter! If it is meant to be for rain during the winter, it will need to be designed with at least more layers of a very expensive padding to justify the high price we all pay for it. I will send it back, and will get a better quality for what I pay.

A lovely coat but..

I bought this coat in the Spring sale ready for long winter dog walks. It’s the right size, it’s a perfect coat for winter walking and just what I wanted. But there is something wrong with the cut. It is uncomfortable to wear for my 2 hour walks. The back of the coat pulls backwards so strongly that the neck seam at the front presses on my throat and there’s a gap then at the back of my neck that gets cold. I spend most of the time resetting the coat on my shoulders by pulling it forward or grabbing a handful of fabric at the front of the neck and hanging onto it while I walk is the only way I can keep comfortable. It’s really strange. I can’t wear it and if I buy a larger size I suspect it will be too big. So Seasalt do I try a size larger or try another coat the same size?

What a relief at last to have a weatherproof coat which zips up and fits me.

Dog walking coat

Love my new dog walking coat, totally waterproof (tried and tested) and light weight so not sweltering running after my cocker spaniel. Only downside are the pockets. The pocket zips are a good idea but a bit fiddly and not quite big enough for the average smart phone. To utilise the internal phone size pocket you practically have to unzip the whole coat which is not practical in wet weather. Plenty of space to layer under the coat when weather turns colder. Nice contrasting coloured lining in the sleeves. I would recommend this coat.

everything I want from a coat

I'm delighted with this coat. I was going on a trip to a remote island where the weather can be wild. I wanted a coat that was waterproof, windproof, lightweight/not bulky, well made, good-looking and has a dip at the back hem that I can sit on when on a walk and not get my bottom damp! I spent a while researching. I then bought this and a Barbour to compare. The Barbour was bulky and just no-where near as good so I sent the Barbour back and kept this. I love it. If I could sleep in it I would. It is also very good value when you compare with what's out there. I have read the other reviews about the length but for me it's perfect. I got the black in a size 14. I think the length gives it more style, and keeps my thighs dry in the rain. I am 5' 7" and a size 14 or 12.

This is a lovely warm winter coat! I always size up for a jacket/coat but this time I took my regular size (UK 12) and there is plenty of space for layering! I bought the dark wreckage colour. I'd prefer it if it was a bit darker/petrol but still it's an unusual colour. Dark navy looked amazing too! It is very long indeed (I'm 5ft 8) especially at the back, but I don't mind it! It will keep my legs warm! Lovely seasalt quality and customer service as always!

Spotted in the window of my local store (Salcombe) but sadly they only had a size 8 in the window as they weren't being stocked with coats anymore (eh?! It's Devon - it rains - a lot!)
Colour is great, deep and vibrant. Good quality, plenty of pockets too. I'm 5'6 and I like the fact it sits below the knee; plenty of ways to adapt the fit too.
Waterproof and windproof capabilities were well tested on its first day out: very rainy break duty survived! All in all, a fabulous coat.

Way too much fabric

I love the dark wreckage colour and the orange trim. The coat is really well made and has lots of lovely design features. However, it has a ridiculous amount of fabric from the waist down which is entirely superfluous. This gives the coat quite an unflattering, flared shape. I'm 5' 7" and a size 10 and would prefer a more flattering, slimming silhouette. I will try the size 8 but expect that will be too tight on the shoulders. Very disappointing as in all other respects it's a lovely coat.

Couldn't love this coat more! Lovely fit and perfect for a tall lady like myself - I'm 5ft 10. Love the colour & all the cosy lining. It's definitely waterproof, I was caught in a heavy shower yesterday and it kept me beautifully dry. If I was being very very picky, I would say the one thing I'm not so keen on, is the peaked hood. I wouldn't say it makes any difference to keeping my hair dry and I'm not too struck on the look of it.......but that is being very picky, because I really am thrilled with my purchase.

Could not decide which seasalt coat to buy for the West of Scotland winter! This one is perfect and cosy. Big enough to wear over a suit jacket so ideal for town and country. Excellent length to keep my legs dry. The poppers at waist give it a nice shape too. So pleased chose this one, excellent buy and wont have to wait long to test the waterproofing. Chose the Navy but would like brighter colours too to brighten up the winter. Not sure about the reflective strips on sleeves though. They take the look away a little from the flash of colour when sleeves rolled up a little.

I have been looking for a versatile good -looking coat for a while. The search is over ! This ticks all the boxes - detachable hood, long enough to keep legs dry in bad weather and smart enough to wear anywhere. Thank you Sea Salt for coming to the rescue!

I feel lovely & snug wearing this

I've had the kellifray mac for a few years but I find it too thin in winter so I wanted something waterproof but warmer so decided to buy the Janelle.

This feels so nice to wear, really warm and I've done a few school runs in heavy rain and felt very well protected.
It's very long it comes past my knees at the rear... not a problem but just longer than I expected. However great when it's raining as more protection.
Wish I'd got the size smaller as it's slightly big on me. Should have exchanged it but was too eager to wear it!

Janelle II Coat

Very good quality, soft lining, warm. I especially liked the length, which provides great protection from the elements.

Great Coat!

I bought Janelle II Coat in John Lewis and I'm really happy with my purchase - looks really well, is warm, water resistant and comfortable. I can only recommend this coat!

Fabulous Coat!

What a brilliant coat! I feel like I have been hunting for a few years for a coat that ticks all these boxes. Warm, water proof, hood, wind proof, good looking and guaranteed to last. I bought 4 different coats last year from various places and returned them all as they just weren't right. This coat got all the right things. Pockets where you didn't even realise you could really use a pocket, warm, stylish and super practical. Wore it on the school run a few times already and everyone wants to know where I got it! Finally, a great coat! - And a lifetime guarantee - that's amazing! :)

Amazing. Good fit. Light to wear. Bought from new store in Bracknell...great to have a store so near to see Seasalt stock in the flesh.

Disappointing as not as good quality as previous janelle coat

Unlike previous janelle model,l i found this very disappointing & returned. With this newer style there is more chance of catching zip as less generous margin of material.. More importantly this peaked hood did not cover the front of my head as hood is much shallower than earlier style. Dark wreckage shade in this coat is not same as same shade in the lighter rainwear jackets-it is s lightly greener.

Janelle ll

I haven't try it in the rain yet.... so I can't comment how waterproof it is .

I love the colour, length and feel of the material. I am 171cm tall and I have it at the back down half my calf and front up to my knees. I am full in my hips and it fits me well. It's slightly on a loose side in my chest area. It seems sooo warm. I like it so far !

Just a lovely coat and no mistaking!

A well made warm coat with plenty of little features to make it special, but also suitable to be used every day in cooler weather. A good plus size fit for me, and sleeves have a reflective strip when slightly turned back which will assist me to have safer night time dog walks. Well done Seasalt!

fabulous warm coat

Lovely light warm coat. Great shaped hood with soft furry lining. Cosy fleecy pockets ideal for warming cold hands. Only problem is that it is much too long on me (only 5' 3')'. However if you are a little taller then it is a great buy, ticks all the boxes.
